Yes. In accordance with health authority directives, all Princess cruises will be operated as vaccinated cruises. These cruises are available for guests who have received their final dose of an authorized/approved COVID-19 vaccine at least 14 days prior to the beginning of the cruise and have proof of their vaccination. Boosters are highly recommended for those eligible at least 7 days before.
Proof of COVID-19 vaccination and the dates given will be required and will need to be shown at the terminal prior to boarding. Failure to provide this evidence will result in denial of boarding.
Please take note that at the terminal guests will need to provide a negative viral COVID 19 test which has been taken within the three days prior to departure, however it no longer needs to be medically observed.
As the Pfizer COVID-19 vaccine becomes available to children 5-11 years old, following the CDC’s recommendation, Princess look forward to welcoming fully vaccinated children from the age of 5 and above. If you are unlikely to be fully vaccinated at the time of departure, please enquire at time of booking regarding their Book with Confidence Policy.
Guests should always ensure they understand all requirements to travel from their home country and the destinations they plan to visit. Details continue to be updated regularly and official websites and apps developed by government agencies and tourism ministries are the recommended resources.
From 6th September, unvaccinated guests will be welcome to cruise on most voyages of less than 16 nights but they must provide a negative self-test taken within three days of embarkation. Please note that unvaccinated children under 5 years old will not requre a pre-cruise test.
Fully-vaccinated guests on voyages of up to 15 nights will no longer be required to take a pre-cruise test with the exception of full Panama Canal transits, trans-ocean and other special itineraries. If booked on a voyage with enhanced guidlines, a supervised test will still be required within three days of embarkation for all guests aged 5 and older.
The Greek government has their own testing requirements. For voyages departing, arriving or visiting Greece, please refer to the Greece table for Vaccination and Testing Requirements.
